4 Ways to Hold Your Boss Accountable 
So many operate in our jobs with a level of fear. We feel like we can’t say anything or do anything wrong because we’re afraid of being fired. Showing up for yourself, setting expectations, and asking questions is not being confrontational. It’s taking control of your career, and it’s all about changing your mindset towards your work, boss, and employer. Doing whatever you have to do to keep your job is the fastest way to lose control over your career. Your relationship with your boss should be a partnership, not a dictatorship. They hired you because they saw that your expertise could solve a problem for them. Holding your boss accountable is setting the tone of how you want to be treated, and it’s all about having a relationship with them that ensures that the boss's side is served and your needs and expectations are met. It’s a two-sided coin.
